We open up to find ourselves in the middle of an empty ring. If anything it looks like we are inside the Saitama Super Arena itself as members of WWH staff are setting the equipment as the only thing properly set up is the ring itself…and in the middle of the ring, sitting in a lotus position, is the half masked woman somewhat known across Showdown as LUNA. Last week she fell to Ryan Keegan and on this recent episode of HellsGate she attacked an innocent interviewer for next to no reason. What is she going to do at this upcoming Showdown? Facing off against Courtney Leinart-Steele, the wife of the commentator LUNA attacked a while ago. Maybe she is here to get a feel of the ring before tomorrow night…even if her eyes are currently closed.
“I knew you’d come.”
The mysterious woman speaks up as one of her eyes open to focus itself upon us.
“For the reason is as clear as day…you want my personal opinion of facing Courtney, right? Of course you do. You are all the same. Believing in your self-glorification until you al believe your words are in fact truth. Such a stupid way to live. The mind-set of an idiot…and an idiot is what Courtney is. I do somewhat understand why she’d want to defeat me. After all, not only is she desperately chasing for her first win in this year’s Shogun but also has the weight of Italy on her shoulders as well as a thirst for revenge that she needs to keep under control before she drowns to it. However maybe drowning might be what I’d like, for I’ve been drowning in mystery after mystery of why I can’t seem to obtain victory since entering the main card.
Maybe I overestimated myself?
Maybe I underestimated everyone else?
Whatever the answer is…I’ll be using you to find out Courtney. Yeah, I’m only a little taller than and built like a truck while you’re like a human bendy straw. I’m also sure that I not only have more overall in-ring experience than you, but I also don’t need to suddenly change the age in my contract a couple months into employment. Oh? You don’t think I’d know that, do you? Clearly you’re more blonde than brunette since you’re clearly a couple fries away from a McDonald’s happy meal to even think I wouldn’t remember such a…rather hilarious…moment. After all, who would be so ashamed of their age that they had to lie about it? Clearly time has given you many, many, chances to grow as now you’re practically classed as one of Showdown’s main stars. Yet it is also for that reason why I returned to World Wrestling Headquarters in the first place…to purge Showdown of filth like you.”
Disdainfully departs the purple haired bombshell’s covered lips, as if viewing the Italian representative as something nasty that she has stepped on, as her other eye opens before joining her other in glaring directly at us.
“And what a nice little bit of icing for this cake that I’m baking for tomorrow night. Shogun, the tournament where each participant represents a country and tries to overcome everyone else for not only personal bragging rights but also the honour of saying that your own country is best. Do anyone know how much pressure that puts on a person? My trainer entered a past Shogun tournament, representing Australia, and while he started well…pressure caught up with him and made him crumble down to dust. So who’s to say that you fare any better Courtney? Oh sure, you managed to overcome last year’s Shogun winner Chris Matthews to get into this competition…but what have you actually done since then? You fought Austria’s representative and lost before facing off against Holland’s representative and losing to her as well. So far that leaves you on zero points Courtney.
Oh? I am on zero points as well?
Well yeah…but so far I’ve only had one match, which was a complete fluke, while you’re entering your third tournament match against me and after I walk out of Saitama the victor it’ll leave you with zero points with only up to four matches to go. So this match is kind of match you badly need to win, for losing to me – after the two you’ve already lost to – might be more than enough to solidify you as a complete failure in this tournament. Not that it’d make any difference from how I honestly view you sweetheart. What is that? Did I hurt your feelings? Cry me a river, build me a bridge and get over it. Since – in our upcoming version of The Italian Job – I, the Englishwoman, will simply outsmart you, the stupid Italian, over, and over, and over again until I am the one standing victorious…while you…
Heh…
You won’t be standing at all.”
LUNA finishes her words quite coldly before a rather sadistic sounding giggle leaves her covered mouth. What could this wrestling rogue possibly find funny, or even a little amusing to herself? Whatever it could be it seems to be distracting the England representative enough to have her look off in the distance, as if visioning something in the empty seats of this arena.
“But maybe the pressure of nationality isn’t what could be affecting you. Instead rage could be what is flowing through your mind over, and over, and over again. After all, it has only been two weeks since I attacked your dear husband Jacob. If it was my partner that was attacked then I’d go absolutely livid, so I can understand why Courtney could possibly want some kind of revenge on me. You’d want to punch me down and keep punching until my face disintegrate, kick my body around like a disregarded beer can and break every inch of my being for what I did to your dear husband, right?
Heh…
It’s actually quite funny now I think about it…
Throughout the entire attack he kept calling, no, crying out for you to come down and save him. Yet you were nowhere to be seen. You could have saved your own husband but instead you chose yourself like a selfish piece of crap. It is often moments like theses when people reveal their true colours and – instead of green, white and red – the only colour that shows from you is yellow. Yes, Courtney, I’m calling you out as a spineless coward. Didn’t you like only tweet about me attacking your man only once, at the time of my assault, and then conveniently forgot all about it until you’ve been finally booked against me?
How come it took over two weeks for you to finally try to defend your man’s honour? For I never once stayed hidden. You could have had this match a hell of a lot sooner if you were genuinely interested in revenge. Yet you didn’t…not at all. If anything the only reason you’re getting your chance now is because Riley Hart decides to have you face me tomorrow. A vengeance hungry warrior never waits, yellow-bellied cowards do. Yellow-bellied cowards do not fight for honour or vengeance, warriors do.
But back to you…”
The milky skinned woman returns the focus of her eyes sharply back upon us.
“You want to know what I think of Courtney Leinart-Steele? I think the, self-proclaimed, Supreme Queen is nothing more than a woman desperate to get herself back on tracks after back-to-back defeats. Yet if she thinks that I’m just going to let her walk over me than her brain is flimsier than John Blade’s credibility. Actually, before I continue, let me rephrase my answer…‘the, self-proclaimed, Supreme Queen is nothing more than’ scum. Pure, filthy, scum that plagues the walls of Showdown with her trash. If anything she might as well do a Lockheart and hire a stunt double to take the fall, get conveniently injured or straight up not even show up to this arena tomorrow since nothing she does, absolutely nothing, is going to prevent me from walking out of this very ring as the winner.”
LUNA finally gets up from her sitting position right after finishing her words. She took her took with her ever so few steps before reaching the ropes where the half masked woman leans her chest against the top rope while keeping her eyes upon us.
“Last week I said that I am going to sabotage this year’s Shogun and clearly, to do that, I’ll need to debilitate anyone and everyone who stands in my way shall fall like the many who have fallen before. And there is nothing a yellow-bellied, unreliable, coward like Courtney Leinart-Steele can possibly do to stop me tomorrow night.”
Was sharply spoken by the purple haired Shogun entrant as she lolls her head over to her left.
“But please at least try anyway Courtney; defeating you will be a lot more fun that way.”
A cold chuckle emerges shortly after those words as LUNA brings herself back to the middle of the ring. Once there she lowers herself back to a lotus position and closes her eyes, ignoring us completely now.
